It seems CNN's version of the amateur video taken by a storekeeper is different from how it appears at other sites, including CBS and the Young Turks.
In the CNN version, the first gunshot sounds - a series of three - come earlier.
This can readily be observed because the point when the three gunshots conclude doesn't match up visually.
In the CBS and YT versions, the gunshots conclude just as the camera image blurs and the officer on top of Sterling rolls off of him.
In the CNN version, the three gunshots conclude while the struggle is still going on between Sterling and that officer on top of him, and neither Sterling, the second officer nor the shopkeeper filming the incident even seem to react to these gunshots.
The alteration does make it seem more like there was no real struggle going on when Sterling was initially shot.
Here are links to the videos. Compare what is happening in them at the conclusion of the first three gunshots.
(See also The Young Turks - begin at 3:54 mark)
There seems to be no other conclusion than that the video appearing on CNN was knowingly altered from the original.
Or maybe the other two videos were altered. Or maybe all three videos were altered.
I don’t quite get how CNN, etc. are being banned on Twitter.
But I’ll pass for now on googling MSNBC lies. I encounter enough of them in the media as it is. There are enough on the nightly national news broadcasts alone.
I can tell you - their heads are being inflated and filled with mush. They think they can be superheroes like Clark Kent, Peter Parker, etc.
Well, here is the proof. This is from another article about how Mr. Drudge could have changed the Republican party. Maybe you’ll notice the ethical and issue of bias reporting with this statement: “If Drudge had come out really negatively against Trump and had supported someone who would have played well with his reader base like Cruz, it would have been much harder for Trump to win,” BuzzFeed political reporter and editor Andrew Kaczynski told Business Insider

What makes you say so?
No, the other two are the version that has appeared at other sites as well. It is also like the version that I saw uploaded to YouTube right after the video was released, which I don’t believe was put out by a news outlet, and was later removed.
Also, the gunshots in the CNN version don’t LOGICALLY correspond to what’s going on visually.
That is, for one thing, no one responds to them. Sterling doesn’t. The officer with his back to the camera doesn’t. And the man filming with his phone doesn’t.
Contrast that with the timing of the shots in every other version of the video I’ve seen. Everyone reacts immediately to those shots.
“What makes you say so?”
I said they may have been altered. The assumption was that the CNN tape was altered and therefore the others were not. All three may have been altered. Or perhaps the other 2 were altered.
Or perhaps only the CNN tape was altered.
I was disagreeing with the assumption, not saying that I knew for certain.
In that case, though, anything and everything could be altered. Looked at that way, maybe there were no shootings involving police in Minnesota and Alabama.
That isn’t the level at which I was looking at things, though.
There is a major difference between the CNN version of this video and every other one that I can find. All those other videos appear the same, while the CNN one stands out.
Its audio also seems out of whack with what’s being shown, while it is consistent in the other version I’ve seen on other sites.
I’ve written about the logical differences, put up the screenshots, and provided links to the videos (telling people where to start watching and what to look for). If you do all that, you will see that it is the CNN video that is both different and highly suspect.
I take it you don’t have twitter or you would know...all day today and yesterday they have been showing the lies, the tapes being cut and pasted and copied to meet what they want the tapes to say, not really happened...it doesn’t fit their narrative...
So for that reason, we are banning MSNBC, CNN and FNC...to many lies, to many fake reports...
Thanks for your efforts. I did not mean to diminish them.
Do you have theory on who altered it and why?
I do have a Twitter account and go there occasionally.
I don’t really understand what you are talking about in the rest of your comment, though.
Everyone’s experience on Twitter is going to be different depending on who they follow and what hashtags they look at.
“all day today and yesterday they have been showing the lies, the tapes being cut and pasted and copied to meet what they want the tapes to say, not really happened...it doesn’t fit their narrative...”
My questions are, who have been showing the lies, what lies, what tapes being cut and pasted, and who is they that want the tapes to fit their narrative. I don’t know what’s being talked about here.
“So for that reason, we are banning MSNBC, CNN and FNC...to many lies, to many fake reports...”
Do you mean your family isn’t watching them?
You’re welcome. No problem.
That depends on who altered it. Assuming that it is some person or persons at CNN, which right now seems to be the most likely scenario, then the most likely reason would be to sway public opinion. They no doubt have showed that video many, many times on air as well as it being used in stories online.
If your not up on current events, don’t worry about it...
Oh I’m up on current events. If you know of a Twitter link that shows me a little more about what you’re referring to, I’d be interested in seeing what it’s about.
